I can't believe it, I finally finished reading El Filibusterismo! It was an interesting story, quite exciting actually. The ending was just pathetic (in my opinion) but at least I'm done with it now.

I'm almost done reviewing for French, and I do hope I do well in my exams tomorrow. I really need to pull up my grades and get a really high average. My future's at stake here.

Anyway, I felt absolutely pleased when my parents told me that they were in favor of 'Operation Independence'. They said that they wanted me to discover the world and what lies beyond the borders of our country.

They said that they were going to open a seperate bank account in Chase, so that it would start growing and that by the time Liza and I arrive in New Jersey, we would be off to a great start. Living expenses are really high, so we would have to work really hard to make ends meet.

It's a challenge, but I'm up for it. I am thrilled that my parents are on my side, because I really need their support and approval. It feels great, because I feel their love, and I know that they want the best for me.

I pray that the Lord allows everything to happen, and that he would give us the funds by next year so I can enroll on time. I can't believe it, this is so exciting!
